ok now this is getting wierd. i tried to look it up but saw nothing on it. my uvula is no longer looking like a punching bag! last night i checked on it, and it looked fine. still a bit bigger than i think is normal but alot better.

i woke up this morning and and i could feel it, just figured it was swallon again. i went to checked it out and it wasnt swollen, or at least i wouldnt call it swollen. it was longer! i have no clue how to explain it. i dont know how to describe it! it was really thin and long. wth is that?!?!

my doctors appintment isn't until next week and i feel find. its not blocking my air way or anything. should i try to get to see the doctor early? i'm not even sure if i could since the doctors are on maternity leave and the nurse practioner (who I see) and swarped with patients. has this happened to anyone?

thelio, I was thinking about you earlier this morning and wondering how you were feeling. I'm glad to know you're doing better. If you feel fine and it isn't blocking your airway or anything, I'd be inclined to wait until the scheduled appointment because, as you said, doctor's offices are really swamped right now. If it starts acting up or interfering with your breathing, get to an ER or Patient First-type facility right away.

This title is better than the last one...."bag" is slightly dirty-sounding. Still not as good as the original title. I give this one a 5.

When I had my tonsils out, my uvula was very swollen afterwards for a long while. It would get 'stuck' in a forward position against my tongue and I'd have to cough or clear my throat to move it back. It was irritating. I remember it looked shorter to me and I kept saying 'they cut my uvula too! Lol. After some time it went back to normal.

i went to the doctor (or rather nurse practioner), and she took a culture of my throat. i should get the results back by the end of the week. she said its inflammed and my glands are also a little swollen. she thinks it may be a virus. *GULP* i hate those things! they are so ugly! Evrey time I hear the word i see this invading my body:
